OFFICIAL STATEMENT OF THE MINISTRY OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS & DIPLOMACY OF THE LIMBOESE REPUBLIC TO THE UNITED NATIONS OF THE AURORAN CONTINENT
Hello.
Since the founding of our country, the people have always desired to cooperate with other nations, in harmony and peace. Unfortunately, recent events on the international political scene have made us abandon this desire for fear of war.
Although our diplomatic relations have not been that close, we hope that this will change in the future. That is why we want to take this first step, as a united country.
According to Law 52/1983, section 1, art. 11, paragraph 1, respectively section 2, art. 4, paragraph 1, letter c): “The President of the Limboese Republic, after consulting the Parliament of the Republic, may ask the people to express their will through a referendum on issues of national interest. (…) Issues of national interest are considered (…) integration into intergovernmental organizations or structures for an indefinite period”.
On the date of 05 July 2020, as the afformentioned law states, a referendum on accession to the Single Auroran Market took place, passing with 72.3% of the popular vote in favor of accession.
The people have decided, and the government must obey. That is why we inform you of the desire, not of the National Government, but of the Limboese people as a whole, to enter the Single Auroran Market.
We hope that this decision will be the beginning of a diplomatic rapprochement between your organization and our nation and we also hope we will not regret this decision.
Signatories:
President of the Limboese Republic, Ran Pristine
President of the Parliament of the Republic, Mike Remin
Leader of the Parliamentary Opposition, Alex Orgonomik
Prime-Minister of the National Government, Henry Pren
Minister of Foreign Affairs & Diplomacy, Patrick Stones
Date:
02 February 2021
